Marlen Acosta Alamo
Graduate Center and College of Staten Island, CUNY
I am a PhD. Candidate at the Graduate Center and the College of Staten Island, City University of New York. My research focuses on the effects that human-driven changes in climate and land cover have on the composition and structure of natural communities. I am also interested on how the speed at which people's natural surroundings are changing influences their awareness of environmental change and their willingness to act to slow such change.
